Finally, "Section IV: The Second Amendment’s Ultimate Protection—Defending Your Life with Deadly Force" details the rights and requirements of what is arguably the most important legal detail for firearms owners: Self defense.
Topics include how to sell or give a gun to someone else without breaking the law, legally transferring or shipping firearms across state lines, legal private party purchases, the legal difference between "possessing" and "owning" firearms, potential legal issues when traveling with firearms, taking guns into the workplace, gun trusts, financial concerns with firearms, the evolution trends in the American legal systems as it pertains to guns, legal concerns with a Federal Firearms License (FFL), and the law about using deadly force to protect your life.
